Re: [VFB] Anyone from Missoula Montana?

Agree with you, Don, but at least Missoula has taxicab service.  When my 
truck engine blew and I spent 5 days in Casper (1994), there wasn't even a 
cab service - wife and I walked to the only mall to see a movie, actually 
walked the length and breadth of the town for something to do.  Never had a 
chance to sample the fishing at the Miracle Mile - all my money went into a 
rebuilt engine!    Bob Trevis

Compared to Casper, Wyoming, it's touristy.
